So when celebrating at a very cool wedding you have to drink the bar dry... Unfortunately just the whisky selection at the hotel bar beat us. Didn't stop us trying though ;-)

Birmingham Japanese

Well after a hard day of selling software to the good folks of Birmingham you gotta go for a bit of food. And everyone knows Birmingham is famous for its Indian and Pakistani food so where better to indulge than at a... errr... Japanese restaurant?!

Even Fat Boy Freddie was beaten by 8 courses of just about everything. Not too sure about some of my colleagues cooking abilities though... Don't ever ask an office manager to crack an egg. At least Mr.West Ham enjoyed his impromptu birthday celebrations (not that it was anything like his birthday).

Next stop Aberdeen...

The Pacific trawler...

Doesn't look like such a tough life to me!?!?

English Ice Hockey

Yes you heard right! The latest incarnation of the English Ice Hockey League this time called the Elite Ice Hockey League sees another new London team arising from the ashes of all the old ones. The London Racers are playing in a dinky little stadium in North London nicknamed the Bike Shed. Feels like more of an aircraft hanger...


Last nights encounter saw the racers take on the much better Sheffield Steelers. I am not sure how they hung on until overtime. But it was a Sheffield own goal with 20seconds of overtime left (if they have own goals in hockey?) that sealed the win.


The thrilling encounter took place in front of a couple dozen people and a pet dog. Oh and I was there. Look see -> thats me! But it was fun and I think Tom might have to drag a few more of us down next time...

Belgrade Rocks!

see I told you so...

NY Times agrees with me that Belgrade is cool

The end of the sunshine

OK so I haven't blogged much recently. Must have been having too much fun or something?? But the weather forecasters tell me today is the last of the nice warm sunshine and winter is fast approaching.

So dust off your rain jackets and start polishing your ski boots cos winter is almost here :-)
